Five classic samurai films by the legendary Japanese director, Akira Kurosawa. Includes Seven Samurai, The Hidden Fortress, Yojimbo and Sanjuro.

'Seven Samurai' (1954) tells the story of a group of 17th-century warriors recently detached from the powerful masters who once paid them. Veteran samurai Kambei (Takashi Shimura) is the leader of the group hired by the residents of a village suffering at the hands of a marauding band of thieves.

Five of his cohorts are trained warriors, but the sixth, Kikuchiyo (Toshiro Mifune), is actually the son of a farmer, desperate to earn his spurs on the battlefield. The basics of the story served as the blueprint for the western classic 'The Magnificent Seven'. 'Throne of Blood' (1957), Akira Kurosawa's film version of 'Macbeth', transfers the action to medieval Japan.

A samurai warrior (Toshiro Mifune) is urged to murder his lord (Takashi Shimura) and his best friend (Minoru Chiaki) by a forest spirit and an ambitious wife (Isuzu Yamada). Kurosawa renders 'the Scottish play' through the conventions of traditional Japanese Noh theatre, creating what was reputedly TS Eliot's favourite film. The famous ending sees Toshiro Mifune caught under hails of arrows.

Winner of the Best Director Award at the 1959 Berlin Film Festival, 'The Hidden Fortress' (1958) is regarded by many to be one of Kurosawa's finest, and has been acknowledged by George Lucas as the principle inspiration for 'Star Wars'. Set in 16th-century Japan, the story centres on rival clans, hidden gold and a princess in distress. Tahei (Minoru Chaiki) and Matashichi (Kamatari Fujiwara) are two cowardly soldiers on the run from an advancing enemy army.

As they search the country for a cache of secret gold, they join forces with Rokurota Makabe (Toshiro Mifune), a samurai warrior who is escorting a fiesty princess (Misa Uehara) through enemy territory. The mismatched travellers then have to fight a number of battles before they finally come within sight of their goal. Kurosawa combines elements of the western and the film noir in the classic adventure 'Yojimbo' (1961).

Yojimbo (Toshiro Mifune), a freelance Samurai warrior, sells his services to rival factions in a small Japanese village. When he is betrayed, he turns his skills against his former employers, determined that the two warring sides should destroy each other. 'Yojimbo' was later remade by Sergio Leone as the Clint Eastwood spaghetti western 'A Fistful of Dollars'.

In the samurai spoof 'Sanjuro' (1962), a sequel of sorts to 'Yojimbo', shabby samurai Sanjuro (Toshiro Mifune) teams up with eight young warriors who seek out corruption among the elders of their clan. They also embark on a mission to rescue a kidnapped chancellor from a corrupt war lord.

Multi variant review!
Style: Tuggi Ball
Coachi Tuggi Ball - Great handle, ball is too big for puppies for sure and unsure on how about the hardness, it is hard, like a hard styrofoam Chase and Krinkle - excellent, buy. Soft for puppies to latch on and the fur plus krinkle keeps them super engaged. Great handle too. Length, you can play with Felt tugs are good too. These have been good minus the ball tug lulz

Odd toy but Perfect!
Style: Chase & Crinkle
Our dogs love this toy! I love that the leash on it is a great size for playing with them. The crinkly noise is my collie’s favorite toy noise so it gets her so excited, and while I’m recovering from surgery, I can’t play rough or bend over to pick up toys from the floor. With this, I can play a watered down version of a flirt pole with her and the corgi and they love it! I appreciate how strong and quality the leash strap feels - I don’t have to worry about it failing quickly, and the padding inside the handle makes playing so much more comfortable. For me, it’s been worth every penny.

Soft and easy to grab. Dog loves the tassles
Style: Tuggi Tug
My dogs are tugging fools and they love this toy. My puppy isn't food motivated so this is his reward when training. It's thick so he doesn't chew through it but it's still easy to hold. The colors are bright and it's soft and easy for him to get ahold of. The only problem is getting him to let go! I wouldn't leave it down for him to chew because he'd chew right through it, but used as a tug toy it's perfect. It's dog approved!

Perfect size and strength for my small dog that is a heavy chewer! She hasn’t been able to destroy and chew up this one like she has with every other toy! Definitely chew resistant.
